Hi Xavier,

They dont use my - they use 'i'... Which is a bit egocentrical if  
not

narcissist IMOHO ;)


BUT they use i (small caps) and correct english is I (= ich, je,  
io, ik etc...)
in capital letter, so this may relativise the narcissist tendency a  
bit :-D

Frankly, I have exactly the same reaction. I abhor My anything. I 
think it is a symptom of My Mac background. My my.


However, on an up note, this is scheduled to be changed in a later 
release, so that the name of that folder can be assigned by the user. 
We're still early in the game with 2.7, so for now it is a hard-coded 
path but that will change.


I could not bring myself to make a folder called My Enterprise either, 
so what I did was copy the words from an email and paste it into a new 
folder title. Try that. It eases the pain.

yeah, Had the same feelings. I really despise that My terminology 
myself. Total lemming-words, like Win this and Win that. It's 
Microsoft-Speak and I,  a card-holdling, 
pry-from-my-cold-dead-fingers Mac diehard, have a bit of hesitation 
typing those words. And now, it's etched in stone in the code 
forever. Kinda like the RFC misspellings:


So what if somebody (probably Tim Berners-Lee, who wrote the 
original HTTP spec) was a better engineer than speller? Yes, the 
correct spelling is referrer, but the term referer is embedded into 
the code of millions of browsers and servers and it's too late to 
change now.
